Come, Father, Son, And Holy Ghost,
To Whom We For Our Children Cry;
The Good Desired And Wanted Most
Out Of Thy Richest Grace Supply;
The Sacred Discipline Be Given,
To Train And Bring Them Up For Heaven.
Answer On Them The End Of All
Our Cares, And Pains, And Studies Here;
On Them, Recovered From Their Fall,
Stamped With The Humble Character;
Raised By The Nurture Of The Lord,
To All Their Paradise Restored.
Error And Ignorance Remove,
Their Blindness Both Of Heart And Mind;
Give Them The Wisdom From Above,
Spotless, And Peaceable, And Kind;
In Knowledge Pure Their Minds Renew,
And Store With Thoughts Divinely True.
Learning’s Redundant Part And Vain
Be All Cut Off And Cast Aside;
But Let Them, Lord, The Substance Gain,
In Every Solid Truth Abide;
Swiftly Acquire, And Ne’er Forego,
The Knowledge Fit For Them To Know.
Unite The Pair So Long Dis Joined,
Knowledge And Vital Piety;
Learning And Holiness Combined,
And Truth And Love, Let All Men See;
In Those Whom Up To Thee We Give,
Thine, Wholly Thine, To Die And Live.
Father, Accept Them Through Thy Son,
And Ever By Thy Spirit Guide!
Thy Wisdom In Their Lives Be Shown,
Thy Name Confessed And Glorified;
Thy Power And Love Diffused Abroad,
Till All The Earth Is Filled With God.
